I have one other question - I read that thumbs worked properly now, and indeed in episode view where it grabs a screenshot to use those are now workeing where previously they seemed to be weirdly doubled up, but in the reFocus skin, when viewing the show list, pretty much every viewing option bar one uses extremely squished images where there's a 'dvd cover' shaped space for an image in the UI. It's worse if I turn off fanart.
The only view that works for me is the one that shows a background fanart image and then smaller foreground version of that image slides past as you select shows. Anything that incorporates any other size of image shows the squished image. I don't have banner views turned on.
I can individually manually set cover-style images that aren't all squished but it's a real faff. Anything I can do to fix?

Ah, I installed both the iPlayer addon and the reFocus addon into the frappliance/xbmcdata/xbmxhome/addons folder because that's what I read in other forum posts (the iPlayer addon is specifically advised to be put in that folder in this very thread actually).
So I should SFTP back into the ATV2 and move both the skin and the iplayer addon to the addons folder you name above, and restart?

Would like to add that I'm using this build and it kept dropping out on me when I first set it up, I think because I added sources and tried scraping. I would literally press down a few times in my movie list and it would just crash. So I booted it up and left it scraping, went out for a bit, came back and all was done and I haven't had a crash since. I'm running wired and I do seem to see a bit of judder here and there on 720p rips.
A very good example is the latest Archer opening credits. When he fires the gun and the white bullet/ball goes through the images it goes really frickin' slow on the ATV. On the mini directly or even through wifi on the laptop, it is smooth as butter.

I have installed the latest build from 1/29 and one issue I seem to be having is that when in xbmc it seems to have a hard time connecting to the network
for example when I go in videos and click on plugins it keeps saying not connected to network and after a few restarts of xbmc it works again.
Didn't seem to have this issue in previous builds.
Also have blue tooth apple keyboard set up but letter input still not working
